To give you Photoshop software users to detailed analysis of the synthesis of fantasy circus scenes of the production of the tutorial.
Create a new canvas in Photoshop with a size of 2800*2800 pixels and a resolution of 72 pixels. With large canvas design, the image quality can be avoided in the process of resizing. Select the Paint Bucket tool below and the fill background is black.
First we need to create a background. Select File > Place in the main menu bar to download the good paper texture material. The paper texture is automatically loaded into Photoshop in the form of a smart object. Because the size of the material is smaller than the canvas, copy it several times, then move horizontally to cover a good canvas. Then add a mask to the copied material layer and use the gradient tool to add a gradient effect to the edge of the material to seamlessly connect the material. In the process of adding a gradient, press shift to create a perfect horizontal gradient effect.
After the horizontal direction is finished, make the vertical direction, only need to copy and flip the layer vertically. The action effect is shown in the following illustration.
Add additional textures to the paper layer below to make the paper look more special. First, add a new layer to the top of the layer and fill it with black. Then select Filter > Noise > Add noise to set the number to about 300%, and the value here is not exactly the tutorial setting, so you can judge with your own eyes.
Select "Filter > Style > Emboss", follow the settings shown in the following figure, and click OK when finished.
